First of all what year is your car? If its a 09 then there's a grill coming out that resembles the IS-F so no need for anything custom. I think it's the new F-Sport.

It would probably be easier to modify the 2010 F-Sport grille mesh insert to fit an '07 than it would be to modify an IS-F insert... According to Joe Z, the 06-08 grilles are different than the 09+, but I would guess they are a lot closer than any ISx50 to an IS-F.

Your only hope is the F-Sport grill as mentioned above, because the IS-F grille and the ISx50 grille are dimensionally different, and it would have to be a completely custom job.

yes, you can do it, depends on your lvl of fabrication skills and/or how deep your wallet goes.

That's why I said "it would have to be a completely custom job" - I never said it was impossible. My grille is a total one-off job, and completely custom...

Why not just order the F-Sport/Version F mesh grille insert?
